So, changing that setting totally fixed the "issue" for me, for almost a week - but now the cursor is back to jumping up to the address bar from search, and that setting is still set to false. Any other settings you can think of to change?
I'm more wondering why you're clicking on the completely unnecessary box to begin with. It never made sense to add these, might as well just render a giant upwards arrow.
Well ... the box is just a remenant of the search web pages.
I think it does make sense to have a separate search box for web-only searches tough. Say you're sitting next to a coworker and you're talking about Anna Karenina and you want to look something up, but typing "an.." in the address bar will pull up "Anastasia likes it big and hard" from your bookmarks because you forgot to disable bookmark search
Definitely illogical and judging by the comments here, its a number of us who notice. It's odd, because they went through the effort to preserve the option of separate search and address bars.
I think chrome does this too right
It's open source software, raise an issue/bug report if this is unexpected behavior. The community is open and responsive to feedback. Posting here won't get it fixed.
The purpose of this community is not to get things fixed, it's to have a place to complain about things that are mildly irritating. For all you know, OP did raise a ticket. That doesn't mean they can't also complain about the issue here.
Posting here did get it fixed for him.
